    I'm not a big zelda fan but this game is awesome. I love the building and crafting aspect of the game. And the graphics are amazing. The story is pretty good too.

    Love the game. My sister, my daughter and I have become so immensely distracted in making off-the-wall builds that we sometimes forget to actually play the quests.

    Hands down one of the best games I have played in a long time. As someone who has disliked Zelda games prior to the previous game, I can’t wait to play this one again.

    A Huge DLC

    I love Zelda and Breath of the Wild is probably the only Zelda to surpass Ocarina of Time. Tears of the Kingdom is a fantastic game. My only issue with it is, the more I play it, the more it seems like a BOTW DLC. A huge DLC, but a DLC none the less. The map is the same but updated with caves, a sky area and depths area. Also there a little differences everywhere which make it seem "new". My biggest issue with game is it doesn't really introduce any new gameplay to set it apart from it's predecessor. Yes there's "fuse", vehicle building, but the core gameplay like grinding parts for armor upgrades, beating divine beasts, and 99% of the time fighting bokoblins, feels very familiar. Fuse is a great new mechanic but it absolutely DOES NOT solve durability. Durability is still a major frustration for me. Even with fused items, fairly high level weapons can break after a fight or two, that's still very frustrating. I honestly thought fusing would fix the problem but unfortunately it didn't. The vehicle building is fun. Coming from games like Scrap Mechanic and Trail Makers, the vehicle building in TOTK is very basic but I get it, it's just an addition to an adventure game, it's not the main thing. While the home building has been expanded, it also feels very limited and I'm definitely wanting more pieces. It's still a great, addictive game just not a new game and I honestly don't think it's worth an extra $10. Did I pay the extra $10, yes because I'm insane I couldn't wait to play Tears of the Kingdom.

    The best game I have played in a long while. It takes what Breath of the Wild did well and improves on it, while addressing most of the complaints in a satisfying way.

    Another fantastic Zelda game. Hopefully you can find this game as it has sold out at most places. Even better then the previous versions. Lots of fun game play too.

    If you enjoyed Breath of the Wild, you’re going to love this sequel. So much more expansive. You’ll easily lose 100 hours playing and not get far in the story line.
